Disability in America: People with Mobility Difficulty

This map of the United States shows rates of mobility difficulty by county. Rates are broken into five categories ranging from 0.9% to 23.9%. Rates appear to be higher (11.6-23.9 %) in the Appalachia Region, the South, New Mexico, northern California, Oregon, northern Idaho, and northern Maine. Rates seem to be lower (0.9-9%) in Alaska, the Rocky Mountain and Great Plains regions, the Midwest, and the Northeast. This map is part of the Disability in America Map Series.
